To determine if 1108 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 1108.
If the factors of 1108 are only 1108 and 1, then we know that 1108 is a prime number. Otherwise, 1108 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 1108 is only divisible by 1 and 1108, then it is a prime number, and if 1108 is divisible by more than 1108 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 1108 are as follows:
1, 2, 4, 277, 554, 1108
Therefore, since 1108 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 1108 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
composite
Is 1109 prime or composite?
